I spent several months when I started, swearing up and down that I would never, ever rebuild, I was much too girly for that. But I'm also curious, and everyone was raving about the magnificent vape that a self-built coil provided, so I forced myself to learn to rebuild my T3S and mini PT2's... they're a pain. But then I got a Kayfun... and other than a brief flirtation with cartotanks, I really haven't looked back -- got 4 kayfuns now, they're by far my favorite vape. Only the Magma comes close. They both build very easily, even for a semi-spaz like me, and with 29ga wire, I don't have to replace the
coils very often -- in fact, some coils, the older they get, the better they vape.
I'm sure your wife could do it, if she just tried; I've never in my life done anything even slightly similar, and I was able to pick it right up, just by doing it a few times. Anyone capable of handling a lit cigarette without setting themselves on fire or being decorated with ashes could do it.
